FT&A

[thundair]

I am unable to keep the GD&T in ANSI as a positional tolerance. It will show up in ANSI as I make the input, but when I say OK, it reverts to ISO. Plus I loose my diameter symbol in front of the tolerance. Is there a way to lock in ANSI?


Thanks in advance

I did a search.... Nada

Cheers

I don't know anything but the people that do.

Tools + Options + Mechanical Design + Functional Tolerancing, and make sure you have the correct default standard

I double checked my options not a lot under FT&A to select (R16) but did find my trailing/lead zero problem.

I was able to keep the positional tolerance in ANSI mode if I didn't add the datums. Then if I dbl click it to update I could add the datums and everything is (ANSI) ok...Still not the way I want it, but it is a work around for now..

Any help...

Cheers

Are you using the Tolerancing Advisor tool, or the basic Geometric Tolerancing tool?

I'm guessing the Tolerancing Advisor might be blocking you from creating a GD&T that doesn't follow the ANSI standard. ????
